The invention discloses a p-type conjugated
polymer containing 3,4-dicyanothiophene, and a preparation method and an application thereof. The method comprises the following steps: mixing a
thiophene unit
monomer containing 3,4-dicyanothiophene, a
monomer containing a conjugated unit Ar1 and a
monomer containing a conjugated unit Ar2, then performing
polymerization reaction under
catalysis of a catalyst, and purifying the obtained
reaction product to obtain the p-type conjugated
polymer containing 3,4-dicyanothiophene. The
polymer provided by the invention is simple to synthesize, the introduction of a cyano group can regulate the
energy level of the molecule, and the cyano group has a low
molecular orbital energy level and a wide optical
band gap, and can achieve good optical absorption
complementation with an n-type
organic semiconductor material; and compared with conjugated polymers free from the cyano
substituent, the conjugated polymer containing 3,4-dicyanothiophene has the advantages of large
dipole moment, high
dielectric constant, facilitation of the reduction of
exciton binding energy, promotion of the separation of electrons and holes, and realization of the preparationof high-performance organic solar cells.
